Brief
Getting to a landmark is easy until the last 300 metres. Which subway exit, which corner, which door, where the security line is, which elevator goes up. Zed Maps answers those questions for 11 Manhattan landmarks, one step at a time, from a named subway platform to the destination inside.
What it does
- One question at a time. Where to, where inside, from which exit; most visits take two taps.
- Routes both ways from every subway entrance, with a step-free option and the reason when none exists.
- 2D and 3D. Floor plans, see-through towers, exploded floors and the stations below the street.
- All of Manhattan at once. 44,828 buildings from NYC Open Data, with the 11 landmarks standing out.
Evidence
Every step says how it is known. What you do and where you do it are rated separately.
OfficialFrom the operator's own pages, maps or the MTA.
RebuiltPlaced from public drawings, plans and city data.
ScenarioA labelled assumption where nothing public exists.
Limits
A portfolio prototype, not an official guide. Indoor positions are mostly rebuilt or illustrative, routes have not been walked on site, and there is no live location or real-time information. Only public visitor circulation is shown.
